BULLETIN 
OF CLASS NEWS 

INTRODUCTORY 

This is the sixth Bulletin of Class News to be 
issued since the appearance of "After Twenty 
Years," the large Class Record issued in 1901. 
With the exception of the Reunion Book in 1906, the 
Bulletins were paper-covered, and some of them 
have doubtless not been preserved by the members 
of the Class. The present book, while containing 
chiefly new material, includes also a few items from 
the smaller Bulletins which it seemed desirable to 
put into more permanent form. 

Since the Quarter-Century Reunion in 1906, and 
perhaps by reason of that memorable occurrence, 
the Class as a whole has gone on steadily prospering. 
The Secretary has accumulated a number of news 
items, which are set forth in the following pages. 
The wedding of Coursen is the leading felicitous 
event of the past year, and the death of Robbins is 
the saddest. The Class spirit is strong and warm, 
as shown not only at the dinners, but in the personal 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

intercourse among the men of the Class, and mani- 
fested in the frequent letters of which the Secretary 
is in receipt. 

The total Class roll is now 113, which, with 33 
deaths and two names which are more properly 
included in the roll of '80, makes up the full number 
of 148 men connected in any way and at any time 
with the Class. Of these 113, several more lost 
sheep have lately been traced and by correspond- 
ence brought again into the Class fold, — W. L Boyer, 
William B. Myers, George H. Rice, etc., as detailed 
in the present Bulletin. Only one member of the 
Class, Julian G. Olds, nov/ remains out in the open. 

Of the 33 deaths, 25 were reported in "After 
Twenty Years," the Class Record issued in 190 1, 
and five more in the Reunion Book issued in 1906; 
and three have occurred or been ascertained since. 
The total of 33 deaths averages almost exactly one 
a year for the 31 years since we entered college, 
and constitutes very little over one-fifth of the Class. 
It is our good fortune that, in comparison with the 
vital statistics of many other classes, this is a low 
average and a reassuringly small proportion. 

Edwin A. Dix, 

Class Secretary. 
Standing Address: 

East Orange, New Jersey. 



CLASS DINNERS 

CLASS DINNER, 1906 

There was a well-attended Class Dinner at the 
University Club, New York, on Tuesday evening, 
November 20, 1906. Those present were Munn, 
President; Duffield, Vice-President; Dix, Secretary; 
Hudnut, Treasurer; Fowler, Dodd, Butler, Cauld- 
well, Farr, Fisk, Kirk, Landon, Lang, Monroe, 
Pitney, Robbins, W. A. Robinson, A. H. Scribner, 
Sinclair, Titsworth, van Dyke, Vlymen, T. D. 
Warren, and Whitehead. The excellent arrange- 
ments for the dinner were made by Fowler. Billy 
Dodd was the guest of honor of the Class, and in 
reply to calls made a brief speech. A considerable 
sum was pledged by some of the men present in aid 
of his hospital work in Turkey, Pliny Fisk heading 
the list with a goodly subscription. 

CLASS DINNER, 1907 

This was held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Despite 
the fact that the date was Friday, the 13th of Decem- 
ber, and that there were 23 men present, the affair 
was neither a hoodoo nor a skiddoo. The men 
attending were Munn, Duffield, Dix, Hudnut, 
Brant, Butler, Cauldwell, Dougall, Farr, Fisk, 
Fowler, Kirk, Landon, Manierre, McMurdy, Mon- 
roe, Moore, Pitney, Rhine, W. A. Robinson, A. H.

voted excellent. This was the

PERSONAL ITEMS 



FRANK POWELL ALLEN 

Frank is a prominent man in North Dakota, and 
his place in the regards of the inhabitants of that 
commonwealth appears to be steadily rising. He 
has been Mayor of Lisbon, where he lives, and in 
November, 1904, was elected District Judge of the 
State, — this being the same as Judge of the Supreme 
Court in the State of New York, and " the next thing 
to the Governorship," according to Harry Walsh. 
Frank carried every precinct in his own county, his 
opponent's city and county, and all the other three 
counties in the district, and was elected by a large 
majority. 

WILLIAM S. BACOT 

Bacot, who has been with the Consolidated Water 
Company of Utica, N. Y., ever since its formation, 
presented his resignation in the autumn of 1906, and 
has come to Morristown, N. J., to live. A Utica 
paper said: "Mr. Bacot is an engineer of ability, 
and is an authority on water-works matters. During 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

the last few years the company has carried on 
several important projects under his direction." 

Perhaps Billy concluded that it isn't wholly 
satisfactory to be on the water-wagon all the time.

WASHINGTON IRVING BOYER 



The Secretary is pleased to report the successful 
resurrection of Boyer, who, since college, has been 
buried in oblivion, as far as the Class has known. 
It has been a long and patient still hunt. 

He was finally found to be living in Hot Springs, 
Arkansas, where his address is 716 Oak Street. He 
writes: 

''I left New Jersey in 1883, and in July of that 
year entered the employ of the Chicago, Burlington 
& Quincy Railroad at Chicago, and have been in 
railroad service a greater part of the time since. I 
am now with the Little Rock & Hot Springs West- 
ern R. R., a part of the Gould system, adjusting 
freight claims. 

"I was married June 26, 1889, at St. Mary's, 
Kansas, to Katie May Jenner, daughter of Dr. J. F. 
Jenner of that city. We have two children: Mary 
Ellen, born June 17, 1890, and Irving Blythe, born 
August 17, 1895. Mary graduated from the High 
School here in June, 1906. 

" I cannot now send you a picture either of myself 

10 



PERSONAL ITEMS 

or of any of my family, as I was unfortunately in the 
path of the big fire which destroyed a large part of 
this city on February 25, 1905, in which I lost every- 
thing that I had." * 
(By request, Boyer subsequently had a kodak 
especially taken, and sent it on.) 




WASHINGTON IRVING BOYER 



"The Reunion Book came to hand{in'^due jtime, 
and I have thoroughly enjoyed it; it brings back 
times and faces that I had long forgotten. I cannot 
thank you enough for sending it, nor for the trouble 
you took to locate me that I might receivejit. I do

not remember that I have seen a member of '8i 
since the separation in June, i88i,and your letters 
have stirred up memories that make me anxious to 
again visit and renew old places in my memory and 
see the changes that time has wrought." 

POWELL MACRAE BRADLEY 

Information has also at last been gained, after 
prolonged search and much inquiry, regarding 
Powell Bradley. It will be remembered that he left 
the Class and Princeton at the time of the famous 
hazing row in February of Freshman year. He 
afterward entered the University of Virginia, and 
our Class has never heard anything about him since. 

It appears that he obtained a degree in medicine 
at the U. of Va. in 1881, and then came to New York, 
where for two years he pursued his medical studies 
at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Colum- 
bia, finishing in 1883, but not graduating. He 
then went out for a time to Mare's Island, California, 
in order to be with his mother, whose second hus- 
band. Lieutenant Christopher C. Wolcott, then a 
Civil Engineer in the U. S. Navy, was stationed at 
the Navy Yard there. Returning East, he was sent 
on Government service to Panama, and was on the 
Isthmus from 1893 to 1895 as Health Officer, or in 
connection with the Customs. 

12 



PERSONAL ITEMS 

On his return from Panama, he lived at the old 
homestead of his mother's family, near Gaines- 
ville, Prince William Co., Virginia, running up fre-

quently to Washington, where he was a member of 
the MetropoHtan Club. In 1898, on one of these 
visits, while at the Hotel Johnson on Pennsylvania 

13 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

avenue, he fell down a flight of steps and fractured 
his skull. He was taken to the Emergency Hospital, 
and died there a few hours later, on August 25, 
1898, at the age of thirty-eight years. He was 
buried in Washington in the Bradley lot at Glen- 
wood Cemetery. 

Bradley was unmarried. His brother-in-law, 
Commander Theodore G. Dewey, now of the 
Annapolis Naval Academy, states that he never 
practised medicine, having apparently taken a dis- 
like to it after his course of study was completed. 



HENRY L. BRANT 

Brant and his wife spent last summer in Europe. 
They made an extended trip, including England 
and the Continent, and going as far south as Naples. 



DAVID C. BRECKINRIDGE 

Breckinridge has for the last few years been 
engaged in the insurance business in Chicago. He 
was for a time connected with the State Mutual Life 
Insurance Company, at 85 Dearborn Street, and is 
at present with the Columbian National, with offices 
in the First National Bank Building. 

In 1 90 1, for "After Twenty Years," Breckinridge 

14 



PERSONAL ITEMS 

wrote: " I am, I believe, one of the very few men of 
our Class still unmarried. Nor am I engaged." 

In February, 1908, for the present Bulletin, 
Breckinridge wrote: "At the time of the issuance 
of some Record, I wrote you in joke* that I was not 
married. ... I was married in New York in 1896 to 
Lillian Louise David, and my only regret is that it 
was not many years earlier. There have been no 
children born of the marriage." 

*The Secretary is good at seeing jokes, but has 
sprained his brain trying to see this one. 

CHARLES HENRY BUTLER 

\/ On December 4, 1902, Butler was appointed 
official Reporter of the decisions of the Supreme 
Court of the United States. The appointment is 
for life, and he removed with his wife and family 
from New York and Yonkers to Washington, where 
he now resides. 

On May 14, 1907, Butler's oldest daughter, 
Marcia, was married in Washington to Mr. Edward 
Creswell Heald. 

Many of the Class met Miss Marcia, as also Mrs. 
Butler, during the Twenty-fifth Reunion at Prince- 
ton in 1906. 

Charles Henry was at The Hague during the en- 
tire session of the Peace Conference, the past year.

BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

' THOMAS W. CAULDWELL 

The '8 1 contingent in Morristown now consists 
of Cauldwell, Pitney and Bacot. Coursen used to 
live there, but he has gone to Georgia. Cauldwell 
has an attractive home on Elm Street. He is prom- 
inent in the work of the Baptist Church, of which 
he is President of the Board of Trustees; and in 
addition has latterly been made President of the 
Morristown Civic Association, and Director in the 
Morristown Trust Company, the Morris County 
Safe Deposit Company, and the Mutual Benefit 
Life Insurance Company of Newark. 

JAMES HAWKINS CLARK 

Persistent search and the following up of several 
tenuous clues have finally put the Secretary in pos- 
session of information about Clark, who, it may be 
remembered, left the Class in April, 1878, and who 
afterward entered the University of Michigan at 
Ann Arbor. It appears that he remained there from 
1879 to 188 1, but did not take a degree. His health 
failed while a student, and he spent several years as 
a cowboy in the West. For a time he was in Bolivar, 
Tennessee. Upon recovering his health, he returned 
to his home, which was in Clarksdale, Coahoma 
County, Mississippi, and there became general 

16 



PERSONAL ITEMS 

manager of the mercantile and supply business of 
his father. He was also one of the Directors of the 
Clarksdale Bank & Trust Company. He was not 
married. 

In 1892, Clark suffered a paralytic stroke, and 
since that time he has been a hopeless invalid. The 
Class will regret to learn that his mind was affected 
by the stroke, and that there seems no possibility of 
his ever recovering. 



WILLIAM A. COURSEN 

COURSEN— BE:NNETT.— At her resi- 
dence, "Oak Ridge," Marietta, Georgia, 
January 22nd, 1907, by the Rev. R. O. 
FHnn, of the North Avenue Presbyterian 
Church, Atlanta, Mrs. Harriet Van Wyck 
Bennett, and William A, Coursen of 
Morristown, N. J. 

Billy has married a widow, a Southern lady, with 
two daughters, one out in society and the other at a 
boarding-school or convent for her education. It 
was while on a three months' trip to Europe, in the 
summer of 1906, that he made her acquaintance. It 
seems that he met her in Belgium or Holland while 
admiring some cathedral; "and his admiration," 
says a classmate, writing soon after the marriage, 
"included the widow with the cathedral, and has 
continued to date, or at least to date of wedding, 
and I hope longer." 

17 



\ 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

Coursen has given up his position in the New York 
Custom House, and he and his wife are residing at 
her home, Oak Ridge, Marietta, Georgia. His 
classmate's hope, expressed just above, has evidently 
come true, for Billy himself writes, in a very recent 
letter to another classmate: "When I come North 
I shall certainly try to come in and see you and tell 
you all about my most happy marriage and beautiful 
Southern home and life." 

The Class unitedly extends to Billy its heartiest 
congratulations. It is glad to include the new Mrs. 
Coursen in the charmed circle of '*the wives of '8i." 



JOHN F. COWAN 

Cowan is now President of the Butte-Milwaukee 
Copper Company, with offices at Butte, Montana. 
A letter from him, under date of August 13, 1906, 
says: 

"My residence is still in Salt Lake, at the same 
number, 903 Second Street, but I am in Butte a 
greater part of the time. I am engaged in the mining 
business, which takes me away a good deal. 

"Gosman is in the office of the Anaconda Copper 
Co., which is the chief company of the Amalgamated 
Copper Co. 

" The only personal news I have is that I am still 
as sporty as ever. I had to pass up rowing, as water

is scarce in this country, — in no great demand, any- 
way. But I am in the trap-shooting game pretty 
strong, and have won two nice cups in the last three 
months. I spent three years operating a gold mine 
in Georgia. We had the misfortune while there to 
lose our oldest daughter* by typhoid fever. She was 
21 years old and a fine type of womanhood. 

" I fully intended being present at the Reunion, 
but was called away on a long trip. I stopped at 
Princeton last year, but did not meet any of our old 
class. 



iX JAMES L. COYLE 

Coyle has left the important superintendency of 
a large Prudential Insurance office in New York to 
accept by preference a transfer to the superintend- 
ency of the same company's office in Hartford, 
Conn. He found the New York work very taxing, 
and sensibly decided that, as he wanted to live and 
enjoy a few more years, he might better do so by 
seeking some less strenuous place. He likes Hart- 
ford greatly, and says that he expects to live at least 
ten years longer than otherwise by reason of the 
change.

BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

/ FREDERIC M. DAVIS 

Fred declined to stand for re-election to the Bloom- 
field Board of Aldermen, of which he has been a 
member for some years. He sums up his political 
philosophy by remarking, "I found while in office 
that you make about three enemies to one friend." 



^ EDWIN A. DIX 

A former Bulletin mentioned the publication of 
another book of mine, "Champlain, the Founder of 
New France," a biographical volume in the Historic 
Lives Series. A new novel, "Prophet's Landing," 
was issued by the Scribners in 1907. The scene is 
laid in the Connecticut Valley, and the book is a 
study of modern business conditions as revealed in 
a small community at a period when certain of these 
conditions were just beginning to manifest 
themselves. 

In the spring of 1907, my wife and I made a trip 
with friends in their automobile through Algeria 
and Tunisia, — an illustrated account of which I 
afterward wrote for the November number of the 
Outlook. We also took a coasting voyage along the 
little known parts of the middle North African 
coast, including the seldom-visited Turkish city of 
Tripoli in Barbary. I spent the summer tramping 

20 



PERSONAL ITEMS 

some three hundred miles or more in the Alps, and 
returned home in the fall. 



WILLIAM S. DODD 

After a year and a half in this country, Billy and 
Mrs. Dodd left on September 7 last, to return to 
Cesarea. He reports a good sea-voyage and a com- 
fortable journey. They went by the 'cross-Europe 
route, spending a Sunday in Heidelberg, Germany, 
and a few days in Constantinople, where Billy has a 
sister living. He reached Cesarea on October 9. 

Concerning hospital affairs, he writes Aleck Hud- 
nut as follows: 

" I hoped to have something more definite to write 
about our water supply, and so have waited, but 
affairs move slowly in Turkey. I opened negotia- 
tions at once with the owners of the land where the 
reservoir is situated, and they want to sell, but 
demand considerably more than I have thought it 
right to pay. That is usually the way here, and we 
can only wait for them to come down. We could 
do but little at it this winter anyway, and so we must 
have patience. 

"The addition to the Dispensary is well under 
way, but wintry weather is hindering that also. To 
have the thermometer go down to 18 degrees Fah- 
renheit, the first week in November, is a most 

21 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

unusual thing here. Since the building is stone- 
work, nothing can be done with mortar in freezing 
weather; so, although the weather is mild again, it 
is doubtful how far along we can get the walls before 
we have to stop for the winter. We are having no 
trouble whatever from the Government as far as 
this building is concerned, because formal permis- 
sion has been granted. * * * * ^j^g hospital 
is full just now, especially the men's wards, and we 
are kept busy. * * * * 

" Please remember me to any of the fellows you 
see, especially if there should be a company together 
for a dinner. With best regards and happy remem- 
brance of the good times I have had with you all, 
that have done my heart good and helped to put new 
courage and strength into me, 

"As ever yours, 

"William S. Dodd."

CHARLES E. DUNN 



Dunn is still preaching and practising divinity in 
Philadelphia, whither he removed in 1904 from 
Freeport, Illinois. He is pastor of the Tioga Presby- 
terian Church, in the City of Brotherly Love, 
and his residence is 153 1 Tioga Street. A recent 
letter from a classmate speaks in enthusiastic terms 
of his work.

Ellis's reply-postal read: 

''Helena, Montana, December 3, 1907. 
"I shall not be present at the Class Dinner at the Fifth Avenue 
Hotel in New York on December 13th, as I do not smoke. I am 
sorry that our Class officers have not arranged for an entertain- 
ment higher than a 'smoker.'" 

Next time, we will have a Metaphysical Conver- 
sazione. Only corn-silk and cubebs will be per-

T. H. POWERS FARR 

Farr met with an accident on December 28, 1906, 
his horse falling with him and throwing him on his 
head. He sustained a slight concussion, which kept 
him in bed for ten days, followed by an attack of 
illness which housed him for a fortnight longer. 

He is all right now.

PLINY FISK 



Pliny has recently built what the New York Times 
styles "a million-dollar mansion" at Milton Point 
on Long Island Sound. He had on the place a 
garage, which on January 28 last was destroyed by 
fire, owing to a curious accident. It appears that the 
chauffeur and the butler were repairing a large 

23 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

touring-machine, when suddenly a gasohne tank 
exploded. The garage caught fire, and the efforts of 
the Rye and Milton Point Fire Departments failed 
to check the flames. The machine and several car- 
riages were consumed, the loss being stated at ten 
thousand dollars. 

The chauffeur was badly burned, but despite his 
injuries, pluckily tried to drag the touring-car from 
the reach of the flames. The butler, less zealous 
but more discreet, is reported to have escaped 
serious injury by jumping through a window. 

Pliny has been elected a Vice-President of the 
Union League Club of New York. 

At the dinner given at Sherry's on the evening of 
February 25, 1908, to commemorate the opening of 
the Hudson River Tunnel on that day, Mr. William 
G. McAdoo, president of the Hudson & Manhattan 
Railroad Company, said: 

"It is due to the great banking-house of Harvey 
Fisk & Sons, great in capacity, great in integrity, 
great in broad and constructive genius, that the 
present comprehensive system of Hudson tunnels is 
an assured fact. Especial credit should be given to 
Pliny Fisk and William M. Barnum, of that firm. In 
these days when so much is said in disparagement of 
Wall Street and the banking element, it is a great 
pleasure to be able to say from actual experience 
and close association that I do not believe there can 

24 



PERSONAL ITEMS 

be found a banking-house where, more than in the 
house of Harvey Fisk & Sons, honor and integrity 
are so impartially observed as fundamental rules of 
action." 



/ CHARLES R. GILL 

Gill, it will be remembered, after returning from 
army surgeon duty in the Philippines, and prac- 
tising medicine for a time in Poughkeepsie, was, in 
1904, appointed by the Home Mission Board Medi- 
cal Missionary in Porto Rico, and with his wife and 
family made his home in our new island possession. 
His work was in connection with the Presbyterian 
Hospital at San Juan, and covered a field of twelve 
stations, including two large cities. 

He has since relinquished much or all of this 
work, and now has a plantation on the island. 

On the date of the dinner in 1906, November 17, 
Gill was on the steamship "Coamo," returning to 
his home in Porto Rico. He wrote from on board: 

" Please express my regrets to my classmates that 
I cannot stay longer to see them at the Class Dinner. 
I have to leave today. I have directed that a box of 
my cigars, made on my own plantation, be sent to 
you for the occasion. Kindly distribute them with 
my regards." 

The Secretary deplores the fact that the cigars 

25 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

failed to arrive in time, and, in fact, have never 
turned up at all. 

Gill added: "If the boys want any more, please 
let me know/' 

N. B. His address will be found in the Class Roll 
at the end of this Bulletin, and "the boys" may feel 
moved to let him know themselves. 



V ROBERT HADDOW and HENRY D. 
WARREN 

In September, 1906, McMurdy was in Toronto, 
the home of Haddow and Warren, and saw them 
both. Their offices are only two blocks apart. 
McMurdy writes: 

"Haddow has developed into a fine fellow, quiet 
and unassuming, and seemed very much pleased 
to see me and talk over events of Fresh, year and 
inquire about different men in the Class. He was 
compelled to give up preaching on account of throat 
trouble. He occupies a fine suite of offices, on the 
top floor, where he has a view of Toronto. He 
wished to be remembered to all the fellows." 

A month later, Thom found himself in Toronto, 
and he too hunted up Haddow. He says: "As 
the Reverend Robert is a commuter, I had only 
a chance to see him for the time that it took us to 
walk to the station from where I found him. He 

26 



PERSONAL ITEMS 

told me that McMurdy had recently called on him, 
— the first '8 1 man to do so. . . . Haddow's 
close-cropped Vandyke is white at the sides of the 
chin, but his hair doesn't show much gray. He 
seems well, and content with his work as editor of 
'The Presbyterian,' a religious paper, and *The 
Westminster,' a general paper with religious but 
not denominational affiliations." 

Returning to McMurdy's visits, the latter's 
account goes on: 

"I found Warren in, but very busy, as he was 
going West on a trip. I said to him: 

"'Is this Mr. Warren.?' 

"His reply was, 'Yes; well, what is it.?'

EDWARD P. T. HAMMOND 

As stated in one of the smaller Bulletins, Hammond 
is living in London. He was admitted to the Mary- 
land Bar after graduation, and practised law for a 
time; then, after a period of travel abroad, he was 
appointed by Secretary Blaine U. S. Consul at 
Budapest, Hungary, a position which he held 
during two administrations, those of Harrison and 
Cleveland. Since then he has made Brussels and 
London his headquarters, and has been engaged 
in various business and financial transactions. 
He is not married. 

Hammond evidently moves in high diplomatic 
circles in London, with access to sources of political 
imformation closed to the hoy polloy. He frequently 
communicates with the Paris edition of the New 
York Herald, and below is one of his letters which 
appeared in the summer of 1905: 

The Recent Meeting Between the Ger- 
man Emperor and the Tsar Took 
Place at the Direct Instigation of 
President Roosevelt.

Roosevelt at the Russian Court. The initia- 
tive of the President of the United States 
is a probable source of heartburning to the 
German Emperor, who possibly believed 
himself predestined for the brilliant and 
possible role of peacemaker, or, more cor- 
rectly, honest broker, in the Bismarckian 
sense." 

That nothing is farther from the German 
Emperor's mind than to take the least ad- 
vantage of President Roosevelt's praise- 
worthy efforts and tangible results in the 
role he has played impartially between 
Russia and Japan to bring about peace; 
but on the contrary, I can assert that the 
so-called ''momentous" and "alarming" 
meeting of the "German Emperor and the 
Tsar" has taken place at the direct instiga- 
tion of President Roosevelt himself, and 
that the German Emperor and President 
Roosevelt have all* along been the closest 
and most intimate friends, and have to- 
gether engineered this coming peace, as 
both of them are ardent peacemakers, but 
only at the price of honor and dignity, 
which they will and are in a position to 
command. Yours faithfully, 

Edward P. T. Hammond, 



RICHARD D. HARLAN 



In November, 1906, Dick resigned the presidency 
of Lake Forest College, which he has held since our 
Twenty- Year Reunion in 1901. During his admin- 
istration the student attendance nearly doubled in 
number, and many large donations were secured, 
including ^30,000 from Andrew Carnegie for a 
Science Hall, and over ^150,000 from other sources. 
No less than five new buildings were erected, one of 
them, a dormitory, being named Harlan Hall.

Early in the spring of 1907 he accepted the office 
of Special Representative of "The George Washing- 
ton University Movement," which aims "to carry 
out the essential features of the plan outlined in 
George Washington's last Will and Testament by 
developing at Washington a great University for 
graduate work, along the special lines for which the 
capital affords unique opportunities." Dick is in 
charge of the effort to bring this movement to the 
attention of the country at large. He is living in 
Washington, his office address being 15th and H 
Streets. 

He spent part of last summer in Europe in the 
interests of his new work. He was mentioned in the 
London papers as lunching while in that city with 
the American Ambassador, and also went to Paris 
for a time, where he addressed the American Cham- 
ber of Commerce of that city with special reference 
to the founding of a Political Science department of 
the University, as a great training-school for the pub- 
lic, consular and diplomatic service. This spring he 
has been visiting New York on the same mission, 
and as a result of his efforts resolutions of strong 
endorsement of the project have been passed by the 
Merchants' Association and the New York Chamber 
of Commerce. 

In 1902 Princeton conferred on Dick the degree 
of D.D.

he has bought a little place called St. Mary's, in

Hillhouse's oldest son, Walter B. Hillhouse, who 
is now nineteen, has come to New York to live for a

The dominie himself is evidently still the same 
merry wight that we of old remember. To a class- 
mate he recently wrote, in a letter from which the 
Secretary is permitted to quote: "If you have any 
difficulty in recalling me, let me say that I am the 
man to whom you sold your Analytical Geometry 
when you were through with it. (I was then in '82.) 
Let me say also that if you did not learn any more 
out of it than I did, it was a very useless volume." 

In a later letter to the Secretary, Hillhouse 
remarks: "I saw Myers in Augusta in 1886, and

Skinner in Chicago in 1892, and these are the only 
'81 men I have seen since I left Princeton twenty-

for three years can endure." 

Here is a picture of Hillhouse's church in Vicks-

Hutchins is seemingly fond of change, as he has 
lived successively in Wilkes-Barre, Pittsburg, Sharon,

which affected the heart. They had been married 
twenty-three years. The Amherst Record says: 
"Warm-hearted and true, she won many friends, 
endearing herself to those who came near enough 
to know her and to feel the warmth of her affection- 
ate and generous nature. In later years her delicate 
health forced her activities to be limited largely to her

CHARLES WESLEY LYNDE 




CHARLFS WFSLEY LYNDE 



'Sporting Lynde," as he was known on Long 
Island, because of his interest in all kinds of sports, 
met with a tragic death in an automobile accident 

36 



PERSONAL ITEMS 

near Islip on the afternoon of September 3, 1906. 
In the machine with him were his wife and Earle 
Holmes, his chauffeur. Both were thrown out. 
Mrs. Lynde was unconscious after the accident, 
and the chauffeur fainted. Their injuries, however, 
were shght. Lynde's head was cut off and he was 
fearfully mangled. It was believed in fact by those 
who reached the scene of the accident early that it 
was the sight of his employer's terrible injuries that 
caused the chauffeur to faint. 

The three persons who met with the accident 
were riding in the motor from the estate at East 
Patchogue to and beyond Islip. In- spite of his 
chauffeur's advice, as Holmes explained after the 
accident, Lynde insisted on driving. 

The machine was going west at a rapid rate. 
Persons who saw it a moment before the crash 
came said that it was "skipping." Suddenly a 
motor going east appeared. 

Lynde got safely out of the way of the approaching 
machine, but he made an awkward turn, cutting 
entirely across the road and striking the curb with 
a thud. When the car first struck the three occu- 
pants were thrown out of the machine. It bounded 
away from the curb and came back. In the rebound 
those who saw the accident say Lynde's head was 
caught between a wheel of the machine and the curb 
and cut off.

BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

Among the early arrivals at the scene of the 
accident was a Dr. Delatour. He assisted Mrs. 
Lynde and also revived the chauffeur. Mrs. Lynde 
v^as taken to a house. Lynde's body v^as first taken 
to an undertaker's at Islip and later removed to his 
house at East Patchogue. 

Lynde was the son of the Brooklyn lawyer who 
founded the Lynde Debate Fund. As told in the 
Class Record, seven years ago, he left '8i in Feb- 
ruary of Freshman year, owing to the hazing row 
with '80. He afterward entered '83, though he did 
not graduate. 

A New York paper, in reporting the accident, 
gave the following narrative: "Instead of studying 
law or going into some business, as his father wished, 
he enlisted in the United States Army, and served for 
three years in the Seventh Cavalry. In his stay at 
Princeton he met Mary Yard Wright, a daughter 
of Judge Wright, at Trenton, and after his service 
in the army he returned to Princeton and persuaded 
Miss Wright to marry him, which she did in 1884. 

"Mrs. Lynde, who was brought up in comfortable 
circumstances, expected that her husband would 
provide for her in the way to which she had been 
accustomed. This he was unable to do, as he was 
earning about that time only ^12 a week. After 
earning a precarious livelihood soliciting advertise- 
ments, Lynde gave up the struggle in this country

and sailed alone for Australia in 1892. There he 
found a promising quartz claim, but being unable 
to work it himself he had to share the profits with 
others. He managed, however, to bring $10,000 
with him on his return to this country in 1895. 

" Then he learned of the death of his father, who 
had left him, 'if living,' $536, 000. He also learned 
that his two little sons were dead, and that his wife 
had obtained a divorce from him. 

"Mrs. Lynde, who had become stenographer to 
Chancellor McGill of New Jersey, had not made 
application for alimony, as she did not think it 
possible to obtain any. The altered circumstances 
of her husband caused her to apply for alimony, 
and the sum of $80 a week was granted. Lynde 
contested this order and appealed to the Court of 
Errors and Appeals in New Jersey, and it decided 
in the wife's favor. The case then went through all 
the courts of New York State, and finally into the 
Supreme Court of the United States. In the mean- 
time Lynde married Mrs. Sarah Armstrong of 
Stamford, Conn. The case was finally settled for 
Lynde by the payment of $41,000 to the wife. 

"Lynde announced then that his divorce troubles 
had made him tired of this country, and that he 
would make England his home. He, however, 
returned and bought a place known as the Tiger 
estate, at East Patchogue, L. I. 

39

" Lynde was about forty-seven years old at the time 
of his death. He entertained lavishly at his estate, 
and his neighbors liked him for his liberality." 



HENRY McALPIN 



'8 1 is suttenly covering herself with legal glory 
down South, in the persons of McAlpin and Sam 
Myers. On November 13, 1906, Mac was a promi- 
nent figure at a big convention of Confederate 
Veterans held in Savannah, and was chosen to make 
the address of welcome in behalf of the Societies of 
the Sons of Veterans and the Daughters of the 
Confederacy. The Savannah Morning News, which 
reported his address in full, said: 

Judge Henry McAlpin 's speech of wel- 
come inspired frequent applause from the 
large assemblage. He spoke not as the 
superficial orator, but as one who felt every 
word of his utterances. He was deliberate, 
spoke distinctly, and his voice carried to the 
entire range of the hall. Upon conclusion 
he was the recipient of many congratulatory 
remarks. 

In the spring of last year, 1907, the Judge read 
before the Georgia Bar Association a paper on 
"The Court of Ordinary," the Probate Court over 
which he presides. The Association liked the paper 
so much that it ordered it specially reprinted in

SAMUEL H. MYERS 



Sam, on December 3, 1906, had the glory of win- 
ning, in the United States Supreme Court, the noted 
case referred to in a former Class Bulletin as pending, 
establishing the point that under the Constitution 
and the Interstate Commerce Law, citizens of one 
state may receive for their own use goods shipped 
from another state, even though the laws of the first- 
mentioned state may forbid the sale of such goods with- 
in its own borders. The word " arrival" in the Wilson 
Act of 1890 is construed to mean not simply the cross- 
ing of the state boundary, but actual or virtual 
delivery to the consignee. The goods in question in 
this case (which was reported by Butler, '81, the 
U. S. Supreme Court Reporter in Washington, and 
which has attracted much attention), were two 
barrels of whiskey, shipped from a firm in Georgia 
to private individuals in South Carolina, and illegally 
seized in transit by the South Carolina authorities 
as contraband under the dispensary laws of the latter 
state. The case is Heyman vs. Southern Railway 
Co., 203 U. S., 270. 

Butler remarks, in a letter: "The record is silent 

41

as to what disposition Sam expects to make of the 
whiskey, or whether he intends to have it for our 
Thirtieth Reunion. You mightwrite to him, however, 
and suggest that he send it to Billy Dodd 'for dis- 
pensary purposes/" 

The Secretary casts the vote of the Class for the 
Reunion proposition, instead. 

^ WILLIAM B. MYERS 

The Secretary has recently succeeded in tracing 
up William B. Myers, whom many of the Class 
may have quite forgotten, but who was nevertheless 
at one time an '8i man, and is, therefore, rightly to 
be still regarded as such. Myers is living in Bethle- 
hem, Pa. So far as known, he is not related to the 
immortal Sam. 

He writes: 

"My career at Princeton in the Class of '8i w^as 
rather short and sweet. I spent four years at Law- 
renceville preparing for Princeton in the classics, — 
why the classics, I have never been able to find out, 
as I never expected to follow a profession other than 
a business career. Unfortunately, after being at 
Princeton about three months, I had trouble with 
the nerves of my face, and after consultation in 
regard to same with Dr. Weir Mitchell, of Phila- 
delphia, spent the next four months in Philadelphia

under his treatment. When I returned to Princeton, 
I was unable to pass the examinations which would 
have entitled me to full standing in the Class of '8i, 
and sooner than enter another class under, I preferred 
to go elsewhere. After traveling until the following 
fall, I entered Lafayette on the strength of my 
Princeton examination papers, though not expect- 
ing to take a sheepskin, as at the first opportunity I 
would have left to enter a business career. But this 
opportunity not turning up as soon as I expected, I 
went through arid took my diploma with the Class 
of '82, Lafayette. 

"For your information, I would say that I w^as 
married on October 17, 1882 (you will notice I did 
not waste much time!), to Virginia Chapman. 
There have been three daughters born: Elise, July 
21, 1883; Mildred, August 30, 1884; andSarahAnn, 
August 19, 1886. My business interests are some- 
what diversified. I suppose banking would be the 
principal one, as I have been connected with the 
First National Bank of Bethlehem since 1886. I 
am also the President of the Chapman Slate Com- 
pany, one of the oldest in the country; as well as 
connected with boards of direction of numerous 
other local industries. 

''I would greatly enjoy meeting some of my old 
associates of '81, even though it is doubtful if at 
present, after spending such a short time with the 

43 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

Class, I would be able to recall the faces of any, let 
alone the names, — except those very few with whom 
I have come in contact later in life. I might mention, 
among those few, Mr. George Schmidt, of York, Pa., 
with whom it has been my pleasure to spend the 
month of October in Canada for the past four or 
five years; and Mr. McAlpin, of Savannah, who 
married a Bethlehem lady. I was very sorry that I 
could not get to Princeton last June (1906), as I 
had fully expected to do so." 

The Class extends the glad hand to Myers, and 
hopes that he will turn up on some of its numerous 
future festive occasions. He is evidently disposed 
to do so, for at the last Class Dinner the Secretary 
was handed and read out the following cordial 
telegram :

I have never lost one jot or tittle of my interest in

Hamilton College, from which I was graduated; 
but Princeton was my first love, and it was only by 
reason of circumstances beyond my control that I

heart to accept; but now I shall look up the fellows 
at the University Club, and the next banquet will 
find me there wearing the orange and the black. 

" * After Twenty Years' and 'After Twenty- 
Five Years' came yesterday, and I have pored over 
them since until far into the night and again this 
morning. . . . I have often wondered what 
became of some of the fellows with whom I was 
especially intimate, and it has been with keen inter- 
est that I have read the accounts. Of course I 
knew all about the death of Henry Welles, as he 
was my chum (we roomed in East College), and 
we were born and prepared for college in the same 
city. He was always fine-fibred and true to the 
best. Harry Matthews was almost a phenomenal 
chess-player. He always beat me with his eyes open 
and nearly always when blindfolded. It was a 
shock to learn of his early death, and that of Tom 
McLure and Lyman Morey, as well. During the 
summer of '79 I spent a week with Morey at his 
pleasant home in Lima, N. Y., and I have never 
since seen him. He was a genuinely good-hearted 
fellow and we were true friends. 

"Now that the long silence is broken, I shall

rejoice to get in touch and keep in touch with the 
old college. I have always read with deep interest 
anything that I could find pertaining to the splendid 
record and growth of Princeton, and when I return 
East, as I shall certainly do in the not distant future, 
it will be a genuine pleasure to call upon you and 
get in touch with the ^old boys,' who will never be 
old except in name; as we are all and always will 
be no more than ^one-and-twenty' in our college 
memories. I do appreciate the efforts you have 
made in * resurrecting' me. As you have oppor- 
tunity, please give my best possible regards and good 
wishes to all who sing in their hearts today the old 
songs we love so well; and while we cannot sing 
them all together, their influence none the less 
engirdles the world and unites us all in the dear old 
bonds." 



^ CHARLES CARROLL ROBBINS 

The entire Class will be sincerely grieved to 
learn of the death of Robbins. He died at a hospital 
in Albany on August 31, 1907, of uraemic poison- 
ing due to Bright's Disease. He had left Trenton 
on his vacation about August i, accompanied by 
his wife and his only daughter Elsie. He made a 
trip over the Great Lakes to Duluth, Minneapolis 
and St. Paul, looking up Greene, '80, McCune,

Vanderburgh and Walsh, '8i, and Peebles, '82. 
A classmate writes that "he never seemed happier 
than with them, and that he was just like a boy 
again." He returned by way of Montreal and 
Lake George, and became ill while at the latter 
place. It was a desperate case from the outset. 
On Sunday, August 25, he was taken to a hospital 
in Albany. He grew rapidly worse, lapsed into deep 
unconsciousness on Thursday, and died on Saturday. 

The funeral was held in Trenton on September 
4. Schneideman and Van Alen were present. 

Previous Class Records and Bulletins have kept 
the Class informed about Robbins's success in the 
law and about events in his life. He had a large 
and exacting practice, and was Advisory Master 
and Reporter in the Court of Chancery. He was 
for years a member of the Trenton Board of Health 
and Board of Education, and the fine High School 
Building there owes much to his energy and initia- 
tive. He was active in church work, and at the last 
General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church held 
in 1905, Robbins, in the absence of the Moderator, 
was called upon to assume that office for a time, — 
a noteworthy mark of honor for a layman. His 
first wife. Miss Edna Thompson, to whom he was 
married October 12, 1887, died in April, 1903, and 
on October 24, 1906, he married in New York 
City Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Mee, who survives him, 

53 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

as does his daughter by his first wife, Miss Elsie 
Robbins, who is now fifteen years of age. Tommy 
Warren writes: "For a few years past, things had 
come his way quite forcibly, though he could for 
longer than that have been properly described as 
prosperous." 

But it is for his manly personal qualities that 
Robbins will be longest remembered by the Class. 
He had a big mind and a big heart. Every man in the 
Class not only liked but admired and respected him. 
Each of us can call up in memory his face, beaming 
with geniality, and can remember the hearty clasp 
of his hand. Robbins had great loyalty toward the 
Class, and always turned up faithfully, whenever 
possible, at its dinners and reunions. Those who 
were present at the Class Dinner in New York in 
1906 will remember how we all "jollied" him on 
his recent marriage; Farr making an elaborate 
address of felicitation, while the Secretary suddenly 
crowned the bridegroom's head with a huge fake 
bridal-wreath, constructed of imitation orange- 
blossoms and white mosquito-netting. Robbins 
blushed like a school girl, tore the wreath off, and 
tried to cram it under the table, amid a general 
uproar of hilarity. 

Van Alen writes with feeling: "It seems like a 
great calamity that he is taken away, but he leaves 
a strong influence for good behind him, and I can- 

54 



PERSONAL ITEMS 

not say that his departure was untimely, though 
unlooked for. He was a true friend, and I shall 
miss him to the day of my death." 

The following resolutions go on record, and a 
copy was duly transmitted to Mrs. Robbins and 
Miss Elsie Robbins, as well as to the Princeton 
Alumni Weekly: 

The members of the Class of 1 88 1 of Princeton University have 
heard with great regret of the death of their classmate, Charles 
Carroll Robbins. 

In the midst of a career of great usefulness and in the fullness 
of all his capacities for service, Robbins died on August 31, 1907, 
in the hospital at Albany, of Bright's Disease, after a short illness. 

His strong character an-d professional ability had w^on the 
affection of his neighbors and the respect of the entire community 
in which he lived. In the important position of Advisory Master 
and Chancery Reporter he had displayed a probity and skill 
which won the respect of the entire bar. And it is probable, had 
he lived, that a career of greater distinction in his profession would 
have opened before him. 

The Class desires to express its sorrow for the loss of a good 
comrade and a faithful friend, and to convey to his family their 
sympathy.

his head with his forefinger, ''can you tell

No answer. 

"What; no one knows? No one can tell 
me what an impression is?" exclaimed the 
doctor, looking up and down the class. 

"I know," said Mr. Arthur. "An im-

HENRY S. SCRIBNER 

Scribner has another httle daughter, Emma 
Tailer Scribner, born April ii, 1906. 

The Class has reason to be proud of the esteem in 
which Scribner is held in his locality. Besides being 
Professor of Greek in the Western University of 
Pennsylvania, at Allegheny, with English Lit. as a 
side line, he is Secretary of the Faculty, is a member 
of the School Board of Ben Avon, where he resides, 
and is, or was. Chairman of the Ben Avon Public 
Library. He is also Secretary of the Pittsburg 
Society of the Archaeological Institute of America, and 
has been chosen President of a recently organized 
Classical Association of Pittsburg and Vicinity. 
While positions of this kind, as he rightly observes, 
take time and some labor and bring in no salary, 
they bring, he adds, "the feeling that one is to some 
extent useful in the world, outside of one's immediate 
calling."

field at the Class Dinner in December. Paul, who 
was himself present at the dinner, was promptly 
called on for an explanation of this extraordinary 
double life; and it must be regretfully stated that 
he offered an extremely lame and unconvincing 
denial. 

VAN DYCK'S THICK SKULL. 



It Deflected a Bullet He Fired at It. and 
He's Still in the Land of the Living. 

Passaic, N. J., Dec. 3, 1907.— Holding 
the muzzle of a revolver a few inches from 
his head, Paul Van Dyck, of 156 Harrison 
street, last night tried to end his life, but 
was prevented by the hardness of his skull, 
and inflicted only a scalp wound. The bul- 
let glanced off his skull and was imbedded 
in the ceiling of the room in which he stood, 

Van Dyck came home intoxicated late 
for supper, and when he found the evening 
meal cold, he protested. Informed by his 
wife that he could eat it cold or go mthout, 
Van Dyck ran to his room and returned 
with a revolver. Holding it to his head, he 
cried, "Shall I shoot?" His wife and two 
children, who stood by, made no protest, 
and he pulled the trigger. 

Without waiting to see the result of the 
shot, Van Dyck's son ran for the police. 
When he returned with a patrolman, Van 
Dyck was standing at the kitchen sink 
washing blood from his head. He was 
taken to St. Mary's Hospital, where it was 
foimd that he was not seriously injured. 
The physician who dressed the wound said 
he owed his life to the thickness of the 
skull, which had resisted the force of the 
bullet and caused it to glance off. 

Van Dyck was sent to the county jail 
to await an examination into his sanity. 

59 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

An admiring friend, discussing in a recent letter 
van Dyke's admittedly high rank as a vocalist, 
writes: "I have alw^ays contended that Paul could 
do what no other mortal singer could accomplish, — 
namely, change the key at every other bar and sing 
each separate phrase correctly within its own limits, 
and still end on the same key with which he began. 
That is what I call high art." 

WILLIAM T. VLYMEN 



Vlymen is the proud father of a little daughter, 
Katherine, born November 24, 1907. 

This makes fourteen children, of whom two have 
died, — Frederick, died July 21, 1898, aged one year; 
and Edward, died October 10, 1902, aged three. 
The rest of the family, with the exception of the 
parents and the little newcomer, are shown in the 
group opposite, which will greatly interest the Class. 

Vlymen has been revising three of his previously 
published Columbus Readers for new editions, 
has lately published school editions of Coleridge's 
"Ancient Mariner" and Irving's "Sketch-Book," 
and is shortly to bring out similar editions of Arnold's 
"Sohrab and Rustum" and Longfellow's "Evange- 
line."

attend the recent Class Dinner, incidentally observes:

a very cordial welcome in their house. 

Wilson is still pastor of the Westminister Presby-

PROFESSOR HENRY C. CAMERON 



Professor Cameron died on October 26, 1906. 
He was in his eightieth year, and it had been evident 
for some time that his strength was failing. On 
October 13 he was taken to the Presbyterian 



BULLETIN OF CLASS NEWS 

Hospital in New York for an operation, and died 
there. The funeral was held in Princeton. 

Professor Cameron was a member of the Class of 
'47, and had been associated with Princeton for 
over sixty years. 

At the Class Dinner of the month following, the 
Secretary announced the death, and was requested to 
communicate to Mrs. Cameron an expression of 
sincere sympathy from the men of the Class. Mrs. 
Cameron wrote in reply: 

Princeton, December 5, 1906. 
My dear Mr. Dix: 

Your letter, expressing your own personal regret and that of the 
members of the Class of 1881 at Mr. Cameron's death, has been 
received and greatly appreciated. I thank you and the Class for 
their affectionate remembrance of him and for the kind sympathy 
felt for us in our sorrow and trouble. 

You know, I think, what interest in his Alma Mater and the 
students Mr. Cameron always felt, — his students and friends 
particularly. He was much pleased to meet them from time to 
time, and much gratified when he received from them any expres- 
sion of their regard and affection for him. Kindly present to the 
Class our regard and thanks for their sympathy and thought of 
us in our affliction. We find it hard to realize that he has left us 
and Princeton forever. 

Sincerely your friend, 

MiNA Cameron. 

On January 3, of this year, Mrs. Cameron herself 
died in Princeton.

Dr. ELIJAH R. CRAVEN 

Dr. Craven, the Senior Trustee of the University 
and for nearly fifty years the honored Clerk of the 
Board, died in Philadelphia on January 5, 1908, 
at the age of 84. He had been an invalid for four 
years. In December last, he fell and fractured his 
hip. From that time he failed rapidly, though his 
death at the last was sudden. 

All will remember Dr. Craven's fine presence 
and sonorous voice, as he stood on the commence- 
ment platform reading out the lists of honors, prizes 
and degrees. He was the father of Craven of our 
Class. 

PROFESSOR CHARLES A. YOUNG 

i/ The death is announced, January 4, 1908, of 
Professor Young, at Hanover, N. H., of pneumonia. 
He had lived in Hanover since his retirement as 
professor of astronomy at Princeton. 

He was born in Hanover, December 15, 1834, and 
was graduated from Dartmouth in 1853, at the head 
of the class of fifty men. He occupied the chair of 
mathematics, natural philosophy and astronomy 
in Western Reserve University from 1857 to 1866. 
He went to Dartmouth in 1866 as professor of 
natural philosophy and astronomy, remaining there 
until 1877, when he went to Princeton. 

Professor Young was one of the most beloved 

63

of our professors, and his soubriquet of "Twinkle" 
showed something of the affection in which the 
students held him. He relinquished his chair at 
Princeton two years ago.
